Best use of the property currently would be recreational. The old house on the property is in poor condition and needs to be removed. Back Creek runs along the back of the property. The lot extends on the other side of the creek into a wooded area where a flat area used to contain railroad tracks (since removed) If you drive by, please do not go into the old house (unsafe). This is over an acre, mostly in nice flat, grassy field. There were 2 wells on the property. It is unknown if they still produce water. The existence of septic is unknown (no records on file). Electric lines are right there but the meter has been pulled. There is a shed on the property and a pole next to what appears to have been a camper hookup in the past. On and off, there has been a motorhome / camper parked on the property. Come take a look, walk back to the creek, to appreciate what this land has to offer. Most of the property shows up in the 100 year floodplain, according to the Frederick County Tax Map. Priced to sell at the current tax assessment.
